THE IMPORTED PAUPERS.
The Register Makes One Of Those Pecu
liar Mistakes Again.

The Register Makes One of Those Pecu-
liar Mistakes Again.
The suit carried on by Henry G.. Bald
win against the Mortified knife firm
who imported paupers contrary to law,
was not lost by Mr.. Baid,oin, as the Reg
lister 50 trumphantly states. If lost at
all, it was lost by the corruption existing
in the judiciary. As the matter stands,
the accused had to pay the costs of prose-
cution, and that looks something like
punishment, even though slight, consid-
ering the enormity of the crime of the
Mortified Knife Co. Whether they
were also directed to pay the expenses
of their importations back to England
we know not, If not, the law which
such hypocrites as the Mortified Knife
Co. and their abettors pretend to worship
so sincerely, is most grossly contravened.
And the American citizens who worked
there, what Of them?

A Reliable Recipe for Making Genuine
Beef la Mode.

Six or eight pounds of the round OF
beef, half pound of fat salt pork,
three tablespoonfuls of butter, two
onions, half a carrot, half turnlp,
two tablespoonsfuls of vinegar, one
heaping tablespoonful of salt, half a
teaspoonful of pepper, two cloves,
six allspice, bit of stick cinnamon, a
boquet of sweet herbs, or teaspoonful
each of dried thyme and sweet marion
am, four tablespoonful of flour and
two quarts of boiling water. Cut the
pork in thick strips as long as the beef
is thick, and draw them through it at
regular intervals with a larding needle,
or the holes can be made with a steel
or boning tnife and the slips of pork
pushed in. Chop the vegetables fine;
melt the butter in large saucepan and
add them to it, let them cook for five
minutes; dredge the meat with the
flour and brown thoroughly on both
sides. Take it out, add one quart OF

maining seasoning; cover closely, and
simmer gently for four or even five
hours. Then take up. Draw the
saucepan forward; skim off all the IA

THE OWNING ROD.
How Water Was Found at the AvOnmoutr
Docks, England.

How Water Was Found at the AvOnmOutE
Docks, England.
One of the most recent triumphS OF
the divining rod in Britain has been
at the Avonmouth docks. The COM
pany owning the docks having received
an intmation that an American COM
pany proposed establishing sugar
factory near the docks, provided good
water supply could be secured, GER
tain Mr.. Lawrence-who has the repu-
tation of considerable success as
water finder-was engaged to examine
the neighboring ground. In this case
the rod employed was piece of spring
steel, which was bent to the shape of
horse shoe, as the searcher, holding
his elbows close to his sides, began to
walk slowly over the field. After a
while the steel became so violently
agitated and twisted itself with such
force, that one of Mr.. Lawrence's
fingers was cut. He directed the COM
pany to commence boring at the spot
indicated by the shedding of his blood,
and the work was accordingly COM
menced. At the depth of one hundred
and seven feet water was struck and
has since flowed at the rate of thou
sand gallons per hour. In New England
also the location of wells is said to be
frequently decided by the aid of the
water twig. And, moving westward,
we are told that the Southern Pacific
and Central Pacific railroad companies
have, in crossing arid plains, been glad
to avail themselves of the services of
the divining rod in order to success.
fully locate their artesian wells.
Doubtless, ere long, this seemingly
mysterious power will be scientifically
explained. For the present, however,
it remains among the number of I'm.
fathomed mysteries, of which a few
still remain, to puzzle our wisest and
to provoke the contemptuous sneers Of
those who forgetting how little ouy
great grandparents knew of the force:
of steam and electricity and how GER
tain it is that Nature still holds many ;
secret which science has as yet faieC
to discovery believe that whatever il
beyond their own powers of under
standing must necessarily be foolish
ness. -QuiUer.

Hints and Notes Concerning the Latest
Novelties In Feminine Dress.
Low-throated dresses are very much
in vogue at the various watering places;
these showing Tapped surplice fronts,
or those finished with wide velvet re.
vers, which diminish to a sharp point
as they reach the waist. These revers
join a wide sailor collar, which some
times quite covers the upper portion Of
the shoulders in the back.
Summer polonaises are shown in var
ious fabrics-lace, net, etamine, veil
ing, batiste, etc., made in long prin.
cesse fashion, with Grecian drapings
which give graceful and slender effect
to the figure, or in the more bouffant
Marie Antoinette styles, with some
times panier only at one side, and a
Vandyked tablier or decorated panel
on the other.
Full gathered corsages are seen in
diaphanous materials, both for basques
and polonaises, and there are also
tucked Vshaped pieces let in the front
and back, fastened to the dog-collar Of
velvet or the one belonging to the bod
ice. The new belted bodices of China
silk, embroidered muslin, China Grape
or surah are all worn with skirts Of
lace or fancy etamine, mounted on
foundations of silk or batiste. These
skirts are very generally made of one
deep flounce when of lace, this shirTed
to belt. above which the huge sash is
tied.
Jersey waists are still greatly fa-
vored, and are worn in all colors, but
harmonizing with the skirts with which
they are worn. The new summer jer.
seys are made of fabrics of a degree Of
fineness they have never before at,
tanned. Some of the jerseys are richly
embroidered in Oriental designs, Others
are decorated with fine gold or silver
braidwork. The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Russian blouses are also made of the
silk-warp lightweight jersey cloth,
with Russian sash of the same knotte(
at the left side, the long peplum ends
falling low on the dress skirt.

stuff himself in order to carry his
point, but it was no use. He might
have restrained himself until morning
had l not said as we returned to the
bedroom:
GAS for living. yum! yum! Think of
cream. fresh eggs, yell
"Yes, think of itln he roared, "Who
got me out here! Who was whining
about the pure air of the country
finding fault with our table complain
ing of our l4N1S bedroom! You've
succeeded in dragging us out here, and
now hope you feel betterl"
We sat on the veranda and fought
mosquitoes until ten o'clock and then
went to bed. 1t was a bedstead with a
cord in it, and it was straw bed on
which we slept, There wasn't mos
quito bar at any door or window in the
house and we were hardly in bed be-
fore the pests pitched on us. Seven
different times before midnight did Mr.
Bowser get out of bed, light the tallow
dip and attack the enemy. He was
getting out for the eighth time
when the cord broke and we
all went through to the floor.
Then we got up and sat up the rest OF
the night, catching cat-naps between
the bites. We might not have known
when day broke, except for the kindly
interest taken in us by a stray hog. The
beast crept under the house, and the
space was so small that he lifted the
boards under our feet with his back.
When we felt the boards lift we knew
that another day had dawned upon the
picturesque locality.
We left the hotel before breakfast
and were home to dinner. Mr.. Bow
ser seemed very much occupied witt
his thoughts on the way home, ant
when we finally entered the house he
turned on me and said:
"Mrs. Bowser, I'm man who cal
bear a good deal before losing my tenn
per, but l want to give you fair warn
ing right here and now that l want M
more of your nonsense! The mex
time you mention country to me-th'
next time you dragon me into another
excursion of this kind---I shall be JUST
fed in-in--p'
And he kicked the trunk, pitched hi
fishing tackle into the back yard, ant
went out to get some cold cream TO
his blisters, burns and bites.
